Daughters Wedding
7 of us stayed in the property for our daughters wedding on a nearby beach. The Property is in a fantastic location, has great access to the water and the whole of Balboa Island. Some of the finer detail around content of house, booking in/out process, sorting some of the problems ourselves was less than perfect.

Lovely Balboa island
Location beautiful, living dining and kitchen and upstairs master lovely. We were constantly disappointed. There was no renters guide book even though there was signage that said go to rental guide book to find out how to use the televisions or some other issue a guide book could handle. Rather than having to go through five different emails to see if we could find answers to our questions. Which most of our questions were not to be found in their emails. The email message after we arrived informed us to provide paper products such as toilet paper, toiletries, laundry soap, foil or parchment papers. Many of the basics we have grown to expect were not provided. We searched for a place with a ground floor bedroom. One guest was wheelchair bound. The only bedroom on ground floor had one closet packed completely with heavy box’s that we had to move in order to hang clothes. After Saturday there was a number to call if you needed information that required a message and no one returned our call. This was the first time we have experienced such issues. We think there must be a change in the property management agency and they are not guest oriented. The experience was truly unacceptable.
